Nickys first day of school




What a special day for us! Nicky's first day of school. It was very sweet and we all got dressed up for this special event. The new school, the Friedrich-Froebel-Schule in Wetzlar (http://froebel-schule-wetzlar.de/) made a special welcome party for the new six students in first grade. After a warm welcome and music, the kids had a chance to see their new classroom, where muffins and a cute decorated table waited for them. The parents had to leave... We had some coffee and wondered how the kids are doing in there. Some shy connections between parents. Everbody was nervoes, even me. But our little, big Nic did great. He just sat down on this table and waited till somebody will start the party :O) . He was so cool and a pro. I think he is glad to be back in this routine.


After exchanging some words with the teachers and caregivers the first day in the new school was over. We celebrated this beautyful day with a trip to our lake here in Niederweidbach. The kids (Nicky, Philip and my niece Laura) had a blast. The lake even has a sandy beach. It's not Horseneck beach, but close, lol.

Congratulations to Nicky for having a great first day at school. I love the photos- they're so nice! I love that you found a Cars schultuete! Nicky looks like he loved it- It really looks like you made it a special day for him.

I went on the website for the school- and it seems like it will be a great fit for Nicky- They have some nice events and opportunities for travel too- Nicky will love to take the train!

Please give Nicky a big kiss on the cheek from me:)
Love, Fran
